Fig. 1 is the flow chart of the manufacturing method of the isolation structure of LDMOS in an embodiment, including the following steps:
S110 forms first groove wide at the top and narrow at the bottom in crystal column surface.
The technique that this field can be used known goes out wide at the top and narrow at the bottom in wafer (for silicon wafer in the present embodiment) surface etch
First groove (shallow slot).In the present embodiment, before etching forms first groove one layer of nitridation first can be formed in crystal column surface
Silicon fiml dissolves etching window by photoetching agent pattern on silicon nitride film, then cuts through silicon nitride film by etching window and formed
First groove, after the completion of etching at the top of first groove around be formed with silicon nitride layer.In the present embodiment, etch nitride silicon fiml
It is using CHCl3And/or CH2Cl2Dry etching is carried out as etching agent, other abilities can also be used in other embodiments
The known trench etch process in domain performs etching.Etching adds fluoro-gas into etching gas after wearing silicon nitride film, such as
SF6, first groove is formed with etching silicon wafer.In the present embodiment, the inclination angle on the inclined-plane of the first groove etched is 60~70
Degree.
The wider width on the top of first groove, groove isolation construction finally formed in this way can be dropped relative to narrow groove
Electric leakage possibility caused by high pressure cabling above low groove isolation construction.In one embodiment, the depth of first groove is 1
Micron~2 microns.
In one embodiment, the extension of low doping concentration is extended outside by epitaxy technique on the substrate of high-dopant concentration
Layer, the groove that step S110 is etched are formed in epitaxial layer.
S120 fills silica into first groove by deposit.
Silica (SiO is formed by depositing technicsx) speed of layer passes through thermal oxide growth silica much larger than traditional
The speed of layer.In the present embodiment, step S120 is carried out using high-density plasma chemical vapor deposition (HDPCVD) technique
The deposit of silica can obtain preferable pattern.Other abilities can also be used according to actual needs in other embodiments
The known depositing technics silicon oxide deposition layer in domain.
Extra silicon oxide layer can be removed by chemical mechanical grinding (CMP) after having deposited, i.e., will be exposed to groove
The silicon oxide layer of outside removes.Go out the embodiment of first groove, CMP as hard mask etching using silicon nitride for step S110
It is that silicon oxide layer is ground to the silicon nitride layer.
In one embodiment, further include that sidewall oxidation is carried out to first groove before step S120, form sidewall oxidation
The step of layer 204.Sidewall oxidation can play the silicon table for repairing the etching groove of step S110 in first groove inner wall and bottom
Face generate defect (such as because reactive ion etching energetic particle hits generate defect) effect, eliminate the defect to grid
The negative effect that oxygen generates.
S130 gets rid of a part of the silicon oxide surface in first groove by etching.
Dry etching can be used, obtains suitable pattern using its anisotropy.Fig. 2 is step S130 in the present embodiment
The cross-sectional view of device after the completion.Step S130 selects the technique of high-density plasma etching to carry out in one of the embodiments,
Etching.
S140 forms silica corner structure by aoxidizing the corner at the top of first groove.
Pattern needed for this programme can be formed for the residual of nitrogenous compound side wall obtained in subsequent step, after etching
Special turning pattern is formed by oxidation, i.e., silicon oxide surface in the trench, which is formed, is similar to hemispheric concave surface.From turning
At angle down, the silica that is located in the groove portion gradually thicken, to form round and smooth turning, as shown in Figure 3.In silicon in Fig. 3
The surface of piece is formed with first groove, fills silica 202 in first groove, at the top of first groove around be formed with nitridation
Silicon layer 302.The silica corner structure is obtained by 800~950 degrees Celsius of low-temperature oxidation in the present embodiment.Using low
Temperature oxidation is because inventor's discovery is according to higher temperature (such as 1000 degrees Celsius of sacrifice aoxidizes), then wafer is highly concentrated
The Doped ions spent in substrate are easy anti-expansion into the epitaxial layer 102 of low concentration, have a negative impact to device performance.
S150 covers silicon oxide surface and silica corner structure in first groove in crystal column surface deposit silicon nitride
Surface.
One layer of thin nitrogenous compound is formed in this embodiment by chemical vapor deposition, it is subsequent as the hard of etching
Exposure mask.The nitrogenous compound can be silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, boron nitride, titanium nitride etc., it is contemplated that universality can use
Silicon nitride commonly used in the art.
S160, dry etching nitrogenous compound, silica corner structure surface formed extend into first groove it is nitrogenous
Compound side wall residual.
The nitrogenous compound on 202 surface of silica in groove is gone using the anisotropy of dry etching referring to Fig. 3
It removes, while forming the nitrogenous compound side wall residual 304 extended into groove on silica corner structure surface.Nitrogenous compound
Side wall residual 304 is with a part of silica 202 in groove collectively as the side wall construction of groove.
S170 is remained with nitrogenous compound side wall as exposure mask, continues downward etching oxidation silicon and wafer forms second groove.
Referring to fig. 4, nitrogenous compound side wall remains 304 a part that can cover first groove, therefore not by nitrogen
The region for closing 304 covering of object side wall residual will be etched away downwards (i.e. partial oxidation silicon 202, sidewall oxide 204 and extension
Layer 102 is etched removal) formation second groove 201 (deep trouth).The width of second groove 201 is remained by nitrogenous compound side wall
304 limitations, it is thus evident that the width of second groove 201 is less than the width on the top of first groove, the depth of second groove 201
Greater than the depth of first groove.Hard exposure mask using nitrogenous compound side wall residual 304 as second groove etching, can be not required to
Reticle is wanted, cost can be saved.
In one embodiment, the depth of second groove 201 is 5 microns~10 microns, in other embodiments even can
With deeper.
S180 forms silicon oxide layer in the side wall of second groove and bottom.
In the present embodiment, it is that silicon oxide layer 206 is formed by the technique of thermal oxide, is remained by nitrogenous compound side wall
The position of 304 coverings not will form silicon oxide layer 206, referring to Fig. 5.
S190, removal nitrogenous compound side wall residual.
It is clean in order to remove nitrogenous compound, wet etching can be used, such as carved by etching agent of concentrated phosphoric acid
Erosion.Silicon nitride layer 302 and nitrogenous compound side wall residual 304 are removed together by concentrated phosphoric acid in the present embodiment.
S200 fills silica into first groove and second groove.
It in the present embodiment, is the shallow lake that silica is carried out using high-density plasma chemical vapor deposition (HDPCVD) technique
Product.Planarization process, ginseng can be carried out to the silica for exposing first groove by chemical mechanical grinding after the completion of step S210
Add Fig. 6.
The manufacturing method of the isolation structure of above-mentioned LDMOS uses first groove+second groove double-layer structure, upper layer shallow ridges
The presence of recess isolating structure can widen the depleted region at the bottom corners of lower layer's fleet plough groove isolation structure, avoid generating new
Intensive electric field, the field distribution between source region and drain region tends to be flat, to improve breakdown voltage.Using nitrogenous compound
Side wall remains the hard exposure mask as etching second trenches, saves reticle.
